About this piece
The 26 Steez SV Light TW from Daiwa is an ultimate light versatile baitcasting reel designed for serious bass anglers. It features a highly responsive spool that enables lower trajectory casts and improved accuracy. With a blazing 9.2:1 gear ratio, it retrieves 92cm of line per handle turn, making it ideal for quick follow-ups, picking up slack, and ripping fish out of heavy cover. The reel combines SV BOOST technology with a tapered TWS line guide to maximize casting distance and control, especially in the latter half of the cast. Weighing just 160g, it remains comfortable for all-day use, while the saltwater-rated drag system reliably stops big fish.
